The fact that the American speculator handed over control of his transferred empire to his son could, in principle, be a nice and noble gesture from the father. However, it does not hurt to keep in mind that the Soros empire is a mechanism, a machine that is bigger and more powerful than those who operate it, as can be read in Gábor G. Fodor's analysis.
There is a philosopher with a God complex, blessed with messianic views, who is also a billionaire. Through his money and influence, he is one of the most powerful people in the world, but he is certainly the most powerful philosopher. However, the goal of the philosopher is not to understand the world, but to change the world, i.e. he has political goals.
He has built a power factory that is a global political enterprise.
His method is that he does not enter politics (he does not assume a political role, he does not make himself visible, he is not visible), but he intervenes from the outside. NGOs", the Soros network.
The essence of the method is not participation, but intervention. He intervenes to create chaos. Either it intervenes in the first place where there is instability, or it intervenes to create instability. He likes states of imbalance. This is the circumstance that creates favorable conditions for the Soros empire's primary political activity, speculation. Empire has no moral inhibitions, it sins against anyone (see the case of the British pound, Japanese yen, French franc, Thai and Malay currencies).
The Soros empire is the enemy of stability, which is regarded as the most important value of social peace.
The intervention also means that where there is interference from the outside, there is a violation of sovereignty. It is not the will of those inside that decides what direction things should go in their own country, but it is decided from outside, eliminating the sovereign will. The Soros empire therefore not only destroys the cement of social peace and stability, but also attacks sovereignty understood as the essence of self-determination.
The Soros empire is a covert structure that attacks sovereignty.
At the same time, the Soros empire is insensitive to what kind of society it destroys and where it causes political chaos. The father has invested billions of dollars and enormous political energies in preventing Brexit, in financing political action groups against Trump, as well as in supporting "color revolutions" (Georgia, Maldives, Ukraine, Belarus, Lebanon, Tunisia, Egypt, Syria).
The social program of the Soros empire is therefore "empty". Not only any kind of political regime, but all kinds of political arrangements can be its target. Democracy too. The Soros empire is also an enemy of the values on which democracy is based. He is not concerned with the majority principle, voter empowerment, control, accountability, the idea of popular sovereignty, "empty", insensitive to democratic principles.
Just as it is "empty", it is also insensitive to liberal principles, perhaps surprisingly at first. While all such great principles are written on the flag (just, open society; transparency; basic human rights; rule of law) that cannot be opposed in the sense of the zeitgeist, because they are undoubtedly considered positive, in reality the Soros empire does not fight transparently; the Soros network operates in multiple personal overlaps, in a confusing manner, with opaque financial maneuvers and indirect methods (the fact that Soros named his own institute Transparency reveals his irony).
Or let's just look at a popular liberal topic, the issue of minority rights: while Soros stood by the rights of the Albanian minority in North Macedonia, in pre-war Ukraine he supported a system that opposes minority rights. It's not the rights of the minority that matter, it's the disturbance. Let's not even talk about the fact that the fundamental value of liberal and democratic societies is the idea of the rule of law, according to which the law applies to everyone. However, Soros thinks that he and his institutions are above the law: although the same laws apply to all universities in Hungary, the same laws could not apply to the Soros University. The Soros empire is therefore neither democratic nor liberal, it is merely "empty". Or worse.
The Soros empire seeks structural sites of intervention through the microstructures of power. He wants to gain cultural power. He regards higher education as a strategic issue; for mass communication; to produce, interpret and verify news; to "democratize" science; to subdue book publishing, the entertainment industry, art, and the film industry. It maintains rating and classification institutions: they can rate, but they cannot be rated (Amnesty International, Freedom House, Helsinki Committee, Transparency International).
Its aim is to break down closed identities everywhere: refuting the traditional concept of family by supporting LGBTQ rights; the denial of nations through the support of migration and transnational organizations and solutions, multiculturalism; denying the meaning of life by supporting legal drug use, euthanasia, and abortion. He supports openly progressive causes in order to cause social unrest (fight against "systemic racism", "police brutality"; "prison business" trials in Hungary). It supports disobedience against discredited authority (from nonviolent resistance to "color revolutions").
The Soros empire is also total in the means of exerting political pressure. He is building footholds and bridgeheads (Budapest was the center of the Soros empire for a long time). He acts in order to gain economic influence (Soros is proud of the fact that he operated as a one-man Marshall aid in the region). It uses informal and indirect means of exerting pressure (through an extensive network of foundations; the coordinated work of NGOs; the mobilization of anti-corruption "civil" activists and human rights organizations; investigative reports, fact-finding reports and background materials; the power of EU disapproval and international press pressure; through the management of EU punitive mechanisms – for example, it attacks Hungary through the international court in Strasbourg).
It strives to gain indirect influence (press takeovers, occupation of institutions, with the help of clever personnel policy; Soros experts and Soros agents occupy the bases of public life).
He exercises open influence (there are places where he occupies the front line of political life: Poland, Slovakia, Moldova, Albania, Georgia, North Macedonia, he could tell a lot about). It finances opposition organizations (Belarus, Hungary, Moldova). It invades the state (gaining control over law enforcement agencies, through power control over internal affairs agencies; setting up and operating special investigative agencies, through outsourcing of the prosecution - for example in Romania). It operates total conflict management (…) It causes political chaos because its essence is crisis (and the "result" is quiet subversion, revolution, coup, regime change, riots).
